In Response To: I was wondering about that... (SonGoharotto) : I noticed that you hadn't mentioned Invasion itself at any point. It happens : to be my favorite playlist, and yet seems to be horribly unpopular with : the general player base. : The shifting objectives naturally encourages different tactics on both sides, : while the asymmetrical teams/loadouts is both fiction-friendly and results : in a lot of variety in single engagements. : I think Invasion really only suffers due to stagnation. It has received the : least attention from Bungie/343i of any playlist and has only three maps : in rotation -- two, really, because you'll hardly ever see Breakpoint. : One-sided games is still a problem, as a team that doesn't score at all in : the first attack phase will almost invariably be depopulated by quitters : to the point of hopelessness, but speaking personally, few Halo games have : been more exciting than a close match of Invasion. Totally agree. I love invasion because it opens up an opportunity to tell a story while playing competitively. Objectives have a meaningful purpose. Rather than just planting a bomb or capturing a territory on an arbitrary spot on the map, I'm doing it to advance on my mission, or I'm defending it because that's my mission. I'm really hoping they expand on invasion in Halo 4. I've been meaning to do a post on my Halo 4 invasion wishlist. Maybe I'll do that now.
